Therapy is not education or advice-giving. People are unique, so elements of therapy are tailored because healing is different for everybody. My treatment approach is an atmosphere were you can speak your mind safely, to someone who listens, listens intelligently, and cares is important. I believe a successful counseling experience depends on the therapists ability to understand and respect the unique concerns, background, and context of each patient. I am committed to achieving such an understanding in every counseling relationship.

Imagine this: You're feeling lost, hurt, and uncertain about the future of your relationship. Trust has been shattered, and the foundation of your partnership feels like it's crumbling. Every conversation feels strained, and the distance between you grows daily. You yearn to rebuild, to reconnect, and to heal from the pain of betrayal. You want to believe your relationship can be salvaged, but you’re unsure where to start. The love you once shared feels distant, but a part of you still believes it can be reignited. Despite the overwhelming emotions, you still hold onto hope that your relationship can emerge stronger.

I believe counseling should focus on supporting the client in building a life worth living. Only you know what life "fits" you best, but it is helpful to have someone along for that journey, to point out lessons along the way! My goal is to help you identify what in your life keeps you stuck, what roles and values fulfill you, and to minimize the former while maximizing the latter. What kind of life "fits" you?

When life knocks you down, our three natural responses are to fight, flight or freeze. The question is, which response do you resonate most with? Do you become overwhelmed with life and freeze, do you shut down and run away from situations or do you fight for the life that you want? Life has a tendancy to put us in a choke hold, but we have to move forward and I would love to teach you how to put your best foot forward and become the best version of yourself. I believe we are ever evolving people so, who you were yesterday isn’t who you are going to be tomorrow but who you can become has endless possibilities.

Alternatively, maybe you're a millennial or Gen Z'er struggling to manage anxiety and juggling responsibilities- parenting, working, relationships, finances, etc. You are not alone!

What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.
How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.
How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.
How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
